According to police reports, Voyles was northbound on Ash when he stopped for a flashing red light at Fifth Street.

Ramos was traveling east on Fifth Street.

Voyles told police he could not see any eastbound traffic, so he entered the intersection.

Police said Ramos, who had right-of-way, braked to avoid colliding with the Dodge pickup. Voyles then tried to turn to the west to clear the intersection, but Ramos veered to the north and struck the Dodge, the report indicated.

Voyles and his passenger, Julio Cesar Grimaldo, 17, were treated at the scene. Ramos was the lone rider on the motorcyle.

According to police, the temperature at the time of the accident was about 100 degrees - the afternoon high was 104 degrees, which was one degree below the record for the date.

While the roadway was dry, police reported that the asphalt was "very tacky."

Ramos was transported by ambulance to Covenant Hospital Plain view, where he was pronounced dead at 3:10 p.m.
